Frequently Asked Questions about Precast Concrete Fencing

AFTEC Provides the Answers

The price differential varies depending upon the type of stone or brick wall you are comparing it to. A totally natural stone wall would cost approximately five times the cost of the StoneTree® Wall System. Manufactured stone (i. e. Cultured Stone®, Eldorado Stone, Harristone™) and brick would cost more than three times the cost of the StoneTree® Wall System. A StoneTree® decorative concrete block wall would be comperable in cost to a block wall, but install faster. The main savings is in the labor, which is substantially less with our systems than other walls in the marketplace.

The solid steel reinforced precast concrete fence manufactured from AFTEC's forming systems are much more durable than natural stone and brick mainly because there are no mortar joints, therefore eliminating the mortar bonding problems common with stone and brick. StoneTree® Precast Concrete Walls have an expansion joint designed every 15 lineal feet preventing expansive soil and settling problems that normally occur with conventional masonry stone and brick walls.

The StoneTree® Wall Systems have been designed to meet many different site conditions from standard designs withstanding 90 mph winds to hurricane conditions of 150 mph. The walls are also designed for local seismic forces and soil conditions.

The AFTEC wall system includes the proprietary rigid footing support system, consisting of a rigid structural support embedded in the footing and protruding up half of the height of the wall, eliminating the need for steel reinforcing cages in the footings which are required with engineered designs of rebar connecting the columns to the footings (grouted cell design). The rigid support system is the safest and most stable method of installing a precast fence, eliminating the risk of panels tipping over while the footing cures. During installation, the Combo-Cast™ column panel unit safely encompasses the rigid structural support eliminating grouting and temporary bracing.
